    Interesting explanation of importance of driveshaft phasing

    I love learning new stuff! On my truck the front shaft looks good but the rear one is off. I'll want to get that one balanced.

    More CTIS questions...

    I think that this is a power fault. But I do not think my in fried. I could be wrong but if the engineers did their jobs the unit should take some abuse on the power side. I would think this would be common place on a automotive application. The diagnostic manual says not to disconnect the...

    More CTIS questions...

    If my thinking is correct and the fact there can be 9 configurations... how cool would it be to have a switch to change programs... People with high speed gears could possibly have the stock program and a highway program. But I need some tool to test my theory to see of this would work or not...

    More CTIS questions...

    I have an A0 truck so no diagnostics connector (well only for the WTECII) There is a way to fab up a "y" cable to be able to plug in the CTIS into a computer. I started looking at this about 2 years ago but something more shinny came along and I forgot most of what I was doing back then. I...

    More CTIS questions...

    I am wondering if there is anybody with a setup/software to connect to the main unit (box) here in Washington. I would like to try and see if there is a way to "reset" the 5 solid light issue. I have an idea that a fault code is set in memory and stopping the unit for working. I am also...

    I would like to get the stock unit working and would only do this as a last resort. I haven't spent much time on researching this yet. I would really like to see if we can get a way to fix the stock units.

    I have not looked myself but I have been told these units are potted . If true these is nothing to repair component wise. Do you have the software to take to these units? If there is still a way to communicate to these units I am sure they can be fixed. I think there maybe a code set in them...

    Need help troubleshooting an issue with my WTECII

    One heck of a ride troubleshoot this issue. I started on the power side and took a close look at the circuit breakers. They looked awful and a couple fell apart. Did a resistance check and a couple had high readings. Off too the store to get some fuses. I thought for sure I found the problem...

    Batteries charged up and no joy... I added some oil to bring the level up a bit.... No joy... I know what I am doing next weekend. Going to check the connections. Don't think its the output speed sensor. The speedo works and if I am reading the prints right the speedo signal goes through the...
